Shimano Twin Power FE
The Twin Power has been promising reliability and undeniable performance for over 30 years. This Twin Power also lives up to this promise. By using ultra-light, extremely strong aluminum in the body and rotor, as well as the latest and most advanced gear technology from Shimano, this reel can be completely trusted in even the toughest situations. If you're the type of angler who doesn't compromise on your equipment, then the Twin Power from Shimano is the perfect choice. It provides an ultra-light feel in handling, yet has the undisputed power and robustness that the Twin Power name is known for. Thanks to its efficient cranking power, it is also ideal for fishing with powerful lures such as crankbaits and chatterbaits. This series includes various models, from a small 2000 to the powerful 5000. Equipped with HAGANE technology, including HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, Micro Module II and Silent Drive, the Twin Power also benefits from Shimano's three exclusive "INFINITY" technologies (INFINITYLOOP, INFINITYXROSS, INFINITY DRIVE). In action, the super-smooth and extremely powerful performance is immediately noticeable as soon as the individual gear components mesh in perfect harmony when cranking. As soon as you have the first big fish in the fight, the incomparable Duracross Drag system gives you unrestricted control, especially in critical situations. When the lure needs to be brought to distance, you will certainly benefit from the advanced combination of Long Stroke Spool and AR-C design, which has been proven to significantly improve casting distance and accuracy. In addition, the line is always spooled cleanly for perfect line management, as the new Anti-Twist Fin technology prevents the line from sagging between the line roller and spool.

Safety instructions:
“ - Handle hooks with care: Always cover the fishing hooks or remove them from the rods for transportation. Use corks or hook covers to avoid accidental injury.
- Keep your distance: Fish at least 10 meters away from others to avoid accidents. Watch out for people behind you before casting. Be careful with carbon fiber: Carbon fiber rods are strong but can be brittle. Avoid dropping them or banging them against hard surfaces as this can cause damage.
- Safe transportation: Always take your rod apart and place it in a protective cover during transportation to prevent damage from external influences.
- Carbon fiber rods conduct electricity. Do not use them during thunderstorms or near power lines.
- Never try to pull lures or leaders out of trees or bushes by applying pressure to the rod and fishing line. This can result in the bait/lead being catapulted towards the angler. Use only your hands to free the bait/lead.
- Train beginners: Instruct children and beginners in the safe handling of rods and hooks to minimize risks.
- Safety distance: Always keep a distance of at least six meters from high-voltage power lines when carrying or using fishing rods.
- Avoid high sticking: Do not bend your rod too much while you are drilling a fish, which is known as “high sticking. Hold the rod at a maximum loading angle of 45 to 60 degrees to avoid breakage.
- Aligning the rod for snags: If your lure snags, keep the rod pointed at the hook while walking backwards to reduce the strain on the rod.
- Be careful with carbon fiber: Carbon fiber rods are strong but can be brittle. Avoid dropping them or banging them against hard surfaces as this can cause damage.
- Safe transportation: Always take your rod apart and place it in a protective cover during transportation to prevent damage from external influences.
